Check Out Behind the Scenes of Her Universe’s Cinderella Inspired Dress

Ashley Eckstein, founder of Her Universe and voice of Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars, needed a one-of-a-kind dress for the Her Universe Fashion Show at San Diego Comic-Con. Disney Style has released a behind the scenes look at how Eckstein and her designer, Andrew MacLaine, created a Cinderella-inspired gown in just three days.

In the video, Ashley explains how the Her Universe fashion show came to be and she explains how the concept of dreams coming true as well as the concept of transformation came to influence this year’s fashion show focus. This focus on dreams led to her focusing on a Cinderella-inspired gown. Cinderella transforming from rags to riches left a mark on Ashley, which led to her wanting to embody that transformative moment into a gown.

When the dress is unveiled to her by Andrew, she loves it. Like Cinderella, she has become transformed in a way that best embodies how dreams really do come true.
